Psalm 121 – The Assent : God Protects Us
1-2 I look up to the mountains and hills,
Longing for God’s help.
But then I realize that our true help and protection
Comes only from the Lord,
Our Creator who made the heavens and the earth.
3 He will guard and guide me,
Never letting me stumble or fall.
God is my Keeper;
He will never forget or ignore me.
4 He will never slumber nor sleep;
He is he Guardian-God for His people, Israel.
5 Jehovah himself will watch over you;
He’s always at your side to
Shelter you safely in His presence.
6 He’s protecting you from all danger
Both day and night.
7 He will keep you from every form of evil or calamity
As he continually watches over you.
8 You will be guarded by God Himself.
You will be safe when you leave your home,
And safely you will return.
He will protect you now
And He’ll protect you for evermore!
